Two days later Marty, Armand and their two midshipmen sat on the beach at their impromptu base eating a meal of some dear like animal a couple of the marines had shot. The crew were either lazing around or playing an impromptu game of cricket. They had already had their lunch.

“So, the two Zebecs came from Madagascar,” Ryan Thompson stated, “Does that mean that all those extra Dhows came from there as well?”

“Probably,” Armand answered, “But we won’t know for sure unless we have a look.”

“Why did they attack us en-masse?” James pondered out loud.

“We are a threat to their operation and would cut into their profits. I believe Marty’s comments triggered a, how you say, field war,” Armand quipped.

“Turf war,” Marty corrected automatically “Armand is right. They think we are here to take over the piracy business and they obviously don’t like that.”

“When will we go to take a look?” asked Thompson.

“Well, we need to restock with powder and shot first,” Marty observed, “We damn near emptied the magazine of everything in the last fight.”

“Yes, and our gunners need a rest. They almost killed themselves with the effort they put in,” Armand added.

“We will return to Cape Town tomorrow and then decide what we will do next once we are replenished.”
